| - This was my first stop in my first visit to Charlotte with my fiance. What an incredible, swanky, throw-back experience. The lounge bar is dim, 'classic' with a "Mad Men" 1960s library room lounge type of feel. It appeared like a high class speakeasy. Though it was a little hard to get seated upon getting off the elevator at the 15th floor, once we were escorted into the bar lounge, everything worked out great. Peter was a super friendly and knowledgable bartender/server and Bob was an awesome mixologist, who came out to pour us drinks personally. We treated ourselves to some amazing gritty hummus blend with garlic-y pita bread slices and also tried some complimentary punch drinks. My fiance ordered the JAM beer but accidentally got a different NODA beer so Peter kindly gave us, on the house, a dish of kettle chips with a great dipping sauce; he offered the beer on the house as well. The server was top notch, the drinks were on the strong "spirited" side, and the experience sitting in front of an amazing cityscape couldn't be beat. To top it off, the duo gave us a strong recommendation of dive bars we might enjoy in the area. Definitely an amazing experience.
